The collection contains 877 recordings, including LPs, 45 rpms, audio cassettes, compact discs, VHS cassettes, and DVDs.

Repository: Southwestern Writers Collection, The Wittliff Collections, Alkek Library, Texas State University-San Marcos Scope and Contents Note The Willie Nelson Recording Collection spans 1954-2010, chronicling the career of renowned Texas singer, songwriter, and bandleader. The collection contains 877 recordings, including LPs, 45 rpms, audio cassettes, compact discs, VHS cassettes, and DVDs. Included in the collection are recordings under Nelson’s leadership as well as recordings on which he is a guest musician, producer, or songwriter. Highlights from the collection include Nelson’s first 45 rpm record released under his name, “No Place For Me” b/w “Lumberjack” (pictured above), numerous live recordings, studio demos, and deluxe-edition CDs with rare and previously unreleased material. Some of Nelson’s earliest recordings as a guest musician and songwriter are featured in the collection that represents the bulk of Nelson’s official discography. The collection is arranged chronologically by publication date. Not every recording is dated, and some are listed with an approximate date of release. Some recordings are listed by their original release date, not the date of production of that particular disc, cassette, etc. For example, The Troublemaker was originally released on LP in 1976. On the CD edition, only the 1976 release date is listed, not the date of the CD release. Other CD editions of albums that were originally released on LP do contain the date of the CD release. 2 Administrative Information Access Restrictions Open for research.

  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

  • Country Music Country Music in Missouri Country Bios
    Country Music Country music is a genre of popular music that originated in the rural South in the 1920s, with roots in fiddle music, old-time music, blues and various types of folk music. Originally called “hillbilly music” and sometimes called “country and western,” the name “country music” or simply “country” gained popularity in the 1940s. Many recent country artists use elements of pop and rock. Country music often consists in ballads with simple forms and harmonies, accompanied by guitar or banjo with a fiddle. Country bands now often include a steel guitar, bass and drums. Country Music in Missouri Missourians love country music, as evidenced by the large number of country music radio stations, the number of country artists on festivals and presented by concert venues around the state, the country music artists who make their home and perform regularly in the popular tourist destination of Branson, Missouri, and the many Missouri musicians and bands who play country music in the bars and clubs in their local community. “The Sources of Country Music,” a painting by well-known Missouri artist Thomas Hart Benton hangs in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville. Ralph Peer (1892-1960), born in Independence, Missouri, worked for Columbia Records in Kansas City until 1920 when he took a job for OKeh Records in New York and supervised the recording of “Crazy Blues” by Mamie Smith, the first blues recording aimed at African- Americans. In 1924 he supervised the first commercial recording session in New Orleans, recording jazz, blues and gospel music.

  • Billy Joe Shaver
    BIOGRAPHY: BILLY JOE SHAVER OUTLAW ERA’S TREND-SETTING SONGWRITER Billy Joe Shaver has recorded more than twenty albums, but his gritty songwriting has always outshined his career as a singer. That was especially true in 1973 when Waylon Jennings chose nine of Shaver’s songs for Honky Tonk Heroes, among the first and the best of the Outlaw albums. Willie Nelson has declared Shaver “definitely the best writer in Texas . Everything he writes is just poetry.” Born on August 16, 1939, in Corsicana, Texas, Billy Joe Shaver was raised by his grandmother after his father left the family and his mother took a job in Waco, sixty miles away. Shaver grew up listening to the Grand Ole Opry, as well as the rhythm and blues of Corsicana’s African American community, and he began writing songs by age eight. Once out of school, he took different jobs, including one in a lumber mill, where he accidentally cut off two fingers and part of a third on his right hand. “I wouldn’t ever have gone into music if I hadn’t lost big for me,” Shaver said. “I couldn’t possibly get them my fingers,” he said. across the way [Jennings] could.” Seeking a career in songwriting, Shaver finally was While there are no major hits on Honky Tonk Heroes, hired in 1968 at Bobby Bare’s publishing company in it is considered Jennings’s first important work of the Nashville. He got his big break in 1972 when Nelson Outlaw era. Shaver attracted other big-name artists, invited him to perform at his Fourth of July concert in including Bobby Bare, Johnny Cash, Tom T.

Robert Toll, one of the first critics to examine minstrelsy seriously, was so appalled by its inherent racism that he focused his 1974 work primarily on debunking the stereotypes; Sam Dennison, another pioneer, did likewise with coon songs. Richard Martin and David Wondrich claim of minstrelsy that “the roots of every strain of American music—ragtime, jazz, the blues, country music, soul, rock and roll, even hip-hop—reach down through its reeking soil” (5).

  • Yesterday and Today Records March 2007 Newsletter
    March 2007 Newsletter ----------------------------------- Yesterday & Today Records 255A Church St Parramatta NSW 2150 phone/fax: (02) 96333585 email: [email protected] web: www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au ------------------------------------------------------ Postage: 1 cd $2.00/ 2cd $3/ 3-4 cds $5.80* (*Recent Australia Post price increase.) Guess what? We have just celebrated our 18th anniversary. Those who try things we recommend are rewarded. We have stayed in business for one reason and that is we have never attempted to appeal to the lowest common denominator as mainstream outlets do. At the same time we recognise that people do have different tastes and to some CMT is actually good. We also appeal to those people and offer many mainstream items in our bargain bin. But the legends and true country music are our bread butter and will always be. If you see something you think you may like but are worried let us know. If you pass our inquisition we may be able to send it on a sale or return basis. I say inquisition because if your favourite artists are SheDaisy and Rascal Flatts we certainly aren’t going to risk something as precious as Justin Trevino. By the same token we believe great music is timeless and knows no bounds. People may think chuck steak is good until they try the best rump! Recently I had the pleasure of seeing Dale Watson. Before hand I had the added pleasure of sitting in with my compatriot Eddie White (a.k.a. “The Cosmic Cowboy”) for an interview at the 2RRR Studios. Dale is a humble, engaging and extremely likeable man with a passion for tradition.
